ELECTRICAL MEASUREMENT DEVICE

An electrical measurement device for measuring at least one electrical signal is described, the electrical measurement device comprising an electrical measurement unit for measuring the electrical signal and for deriving at least one measurement parameter from the measured electrical signal, an acoustic processing unit for processing a signal obtained from the electrical measurement unit, and a loudspeaker for outputting an acoustic signal representative of the signal obtained from the electrical measurement unit. The acoustic processing unit is configured to generate the acoustic signal to be outputted by the loudspeaker. The acoustic processing unit is further configured to modulate a predetermined acoustic signal by the at least one measurement parameter.

VOICE-ACTIVATED ENERGY MANAGEMENT SYSTEM

A method for responding to a voice activated request includes receiving a speech input request from a smart speaker requesting energy management data associated with energy consumption at a premises of the smart speaker. The method also includes generating a voice service request including a first query for a first data source. The first query includes a request for the energy management data. Additionally, the method includes communicating the first query to the first data source and receiving a first response to the first query from the first data source. Further, the method includes generating an audible speech output in response to the speech input request based on the first response to the first query and transmitting the audible speech output to the smart speaker. The smart speaker audibly transmits the audible speech output.

Cooking control device, cooking control system and computer program product

The present invention relates to a cooking control device that comprises sensors (120) and a communication unit (145) to communicate with a display processing device (170). In this manner, taste values of the cooking substance reflecting the current status of the cooking process can be compared with pre-stored taste values representative of a desired cooking result and seasoning advice according to a recipe can be established and presented to a user to converge the cooking status with the desired cooking result.

Vehicle Leveling System and Method of Achieving Absolute Flatness

A vehicle leveling system has a sensor for sensing a reference state of a vehicle and a level state of the vehicle. The reference state is subtracted from the level state to determine a difference angle. The reference state is absolute flat or other reference angle. A smart device is in communication with the sensor to zero out the difference angle and level the vehicle. The smart devices provide feedback to a user to adjust orientation of the vehicle as to zero out the difference angle and level the vehicle. The feedback can be an audible or human sensory feedback, such as voice or tones. A plurality of jacks is used to level the vehicle by zeroing out the difference angle. The jacks can be controlled by the smart device or sensor. The sensor has a gyroscope providing multiple angles of orientation.

A water meter is configured to monitor water usage and provide an alert to a user when a faucet is left on, a leak is occurring, or a break has developed. The meter is attachable to a main line to monitor a flow rate of water. If the flow occurs for an extended period of time, a signal is sent to a hand-held remote device, preferably a keychain ornament, that sounds an alarm to the possessor of the remote device.
